action

In the last year of the GDR , the comrades of the East Berlin "Murder Investigation Commission" reached their limits. Criminal cases are piling up that are not allowed to exist under socialism . The daily decision between covering up and investigating is becoming more and more of an existential question for first interrogator Micha.

production

The shooting lasted only 14 days and was carried out in the rehearsal stage of the Maxim Gorki Theater in Berlin-Pankow .

criticism

“The formally ambitious drama stages the downfall of actually existing socialism as an allegorical chamber play in which the special should reflect the general. Despite all the coherence, the film staged without public funding sometimes appears constructed and overstylized. "
